I’m pretty sure Fiddler on the Roof (in Yiddish language) plays Thursday matinees Off-Broadway at Stage 42, 42nd Street between 9th and 10th Avenues. Seen it twice. Wonderful.
I know it doesn't really matter and it's none of my business but- when someone dies at such a young age, 38 here, I think it's human nature to at least know what happened. I did a quick search looking under Mr. Keeling's name and found no cause of death.
I believe this new play by John Guare and directed by Jerry Zaks and starring John Larroquette starts previews this week at the Mitzi Newhouse. Anyone going? Report back!
Strange that this play written and directed by revered artists in the theatre and starring a name actor, along with Adam Chandler-Berat, Douglas Sills and Will Swenson, isn’t getting more press or word of mouth. I only heard of it yesterday because my partner knows someone who works at LCT.
As long as we are noting Mr. Gold’s hits and misses here, which we know are all subjective, haven’t all directors seen themselves there, even the great ones such as Harold Prince?- (whom I adore, BTW): Prince of Broadway, Lovemusik, Hollywood Arms, Parade, Rosa, Grind, End of the World, Play Memory, A Doll’s Life, Merrily We Roll Along, Some of My Best Friends, Pacific Overtures (one of my all time favorites- saw it 17 times- but was not, shall we say, loved by all),&nb
I don’t really like Shakespeare either but I did love Mr. Gold’s The Glass Menagerie starring Sally Field as well as John starring Georgia Engel and Lois Smith. I know I’m in the minority on that. Just do a search under those t shows and you’ll find scathing posts here! So, while this King Lear production is getting bad word of mouth already, I kinda still want to see it. I’ve seen it up on TKTS at 50% off already so maybe other discounts will
Used to work in the NY office years ago. This article is so sad in so many ways. Nice that scripts and other materials will be donated to theatres, libraries, etc.
Thx for your replies. However, don’t you think it would be a good business move to change that clip on the show site that is trying to sell the show? If people who like the show don’t think it’s a good clip, what might others, like me, think of it?
Glad to read positive comments here for the show. However, they have a one minute clip on their website. It’s one of those clips were a song is playing in the background and there is a bunch of scenes edited together one right after the other. I know it’s not fair to judge on that, but, I was going to buy tickets for my partner’s birthday, but after looking at that clip, I decided not to. So maybe I should rethink this. If any o
Miss Channing left us in 2019. She will probably be included next year. Take a deep breath.

Great reviews. Not surprising after downtown reviews. Question now: will it now be impossible to get tickets full price or otherwise (Rush $30 at Today’s Tix) to this production. Love to read your thoughts!
